    Rank the B&M coasters in Florida

    1. Mako - awesome hyper and still my favourite B&M coaster ever. 2. Incredible Hulk - great launch, super intense and love the setting of this coaster (over the lake). 3. Sheikra - forgot how good this dive coaster was. Seriously good drop, pretty forceful and just a good ol' classic dive...

    Valhalla at Blackpool Pleasure Beach to be refurbished for 2023

    I've heard that all the effects in there that weren't working in the soft opening are now fully operational. Soundtrack is apparently too quiet still but perhaps that's not a bad thing when it's the new one 😂

    Parque Warner Madrid | Gotham City Escape | Intamin Launch Coaster | 2023

    It actually looks better on-ride than I was expecting. Sure, there are some elements I'd have preferred it to take a bit faster but it looks super fun still and that first launch out the tunnel looks to have some good kick to it.

    Queue Time Displays

    I had a totally different experience this week when I went there. I noticed Black Mamba was always at least 10 minutes less wait than it's advertised time. River Quest also seemed way less, advertised at 45 mins and only waited 15. Most of the other queues seemed very accurate this week but it...

    Taron Vs Velocicoaster

    After several rides on Taron (many in the front row) I can safely say I prefer this more than Velocicoaster. Like others have said, they are both amazing, world-class coasters but Taron had clicked with me much more than VC. I feel that's partly to do with the ride experience and not just the...

    And after a first time trip to Phantasialand... 1. Iron Gwazi 2. Taron - This just clicked with me so much more than VC! Whipping through the whole area of Klugheim was fantastic. The launches, the airtime, the intensity and whips. Yeah, I absolutely love this thing 😍 Especially in front row...

    In a good way? Or were the queues much longer than stated?

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    They really aren't messing around with this! I do believe that there's going to be much more added around the area (new scenery, perhaps some new special effects?) considering how quick they're getting the new track installed.

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    I can understand how some might not like it to be fair. I honestly think it's just refreshing to see Towers putting some effort into their track design other than just leaving it plain and black. Depending on how well they fresh up the Nemesis area, it could certainly fit in very well!

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    Love it 😍 The white, rusty track was iconic but having red veins on this new one looks amazing. Can't wait to see this all put in place!

    Last Cred Review

    Went to Walibi Holland yesterday and managed to do all coasters including their recent addition! In no particular order.... Xpress Platform 13 : 5/10 Loved the queue line for this ride and honestly preferred it more than the queue for Rock 'N' Roller Coaster over at Florida. Still not quite...

    Valhalla at Blackpool Pleasure Beach to be refurbished for 2023

    Why do I have a feeling that this 'technical rehearsal' situation will be similar to Revenge of the Mummy at Universal Orlando where it's STILL in it's 'rehearsals' stage now, even months after opening back up.

    Duel at Alton Towers closing on 6th September - retheme or refurbishment for 2023?

    Got to try it out this weekend and I definitely prefer it more than Duel. The whole thing just feels fresh again and it's good to see all the effects working as they should. I was always one to complain about how much light was in Duel and the pitch black sections with nothing in them was...

    Phantasialand | Avoras | 2024

    Will this likely mean that Black Mamba won't be running or should these works not effect this? Due to go in early May and hoping it's all running for then 🙏

    Parc Astérix | Toutatis | Intamin Launch Coaster | 2023

    Definitely sped up....look at the ride op at the very start 😂 Still, looks awesome!

    Coasters that made you feel nothing

    I'll second that. Recently got some rides on it again on opening day and I still feel so 'meh' after coming off. Its not a bad coaster, but it's also not a great coaster (IMO).....it's just okay :confused:
